Questions

Q: Where do your Seattle wine tours pick up and depart?
A: Our coaches pick guests up anywhere in Seattle, or the greater Puget Sound region at their choice of location. Offices, hotels or personal residences are all acceptable pick up and drop off locations.

Q: What time does my tour start?
A: Because all of our tours are private, and custom created for you, we can start at a time that best suits you.

Q: What wineries are we going to?
A: Barrel Wine Tours partners with many different wineries and the visits are based on your wine preferences and type of event you’re looking for. Winemakers’ availability changes from week to week but your itinerary, which you’ll receive before your tour, will have all the specifics. You’ll also be free to participate in the planning as little or as much as you’d like. All our winery partners have been vetted. Our staff visit our partners and taste their wines regularly and make sure that our guests will have the most authentic experience possible. It’s a tough job, but somebody has to do it!

Q: Are tasting fees included?
A: Yes. The price you pay includes all touring and tasting fees, transportation, meet and greets with winemakers, a knowledgeable industry guide, sales tax and gratuity.

Q: What about food?
A: We can arrange anything from meat and cheese platters to plated multi-course dinners.

Q: I consider myself to be fairly wine savvy. I want to go Seattle wine tasting, but I don’t want to go on a touristy, novice wine tour. Is Barrel Wine Tours right for me?
A: Yes. Because Barrel Wine Tours is a network of quality Washington wineries, and not a tourism company, you are always sure to experience only high-quality Washington wine on our tours. Winery partners are vetted by our team for quality and experience before they are featured on our tours; and we also have in-depth conversations with our guests regarding their wine likes and dislikes before choosing the wineries for their tour.
